😍😍😍😍do you all want to ignore how beautiful , eloquent and elegant this lady is. I mean weeeeeeeeh you can't get tired listening to her😍 her English is 😘😘😘😘
Shuuuuuuuuuuuu!!!! What a burning 🔥 testimony. It broke my heart. I’m so glad that season didn’t break her. What a graceful woman. Thank God for his restorative power! 🤧🥹💜🙏🏾🙏🏾💜🙏🏾💜
Helloooooo again Teresa!! I first heard Teresa's harrowing account in a BBC interview many years ago. Her's is a powerful story about bouncing back from very dark places and going on to become a shelter for many. May God richly Bless your work Teresa.
There is no way Teresa could even think of stealing anything from anyone. We used to work together in the hospitality industry and she's the sweetest person you can meet. Am sorry that she had to go through all that. Sending love to her
I was arrested once, some 5yrs ago. It happened in South Africa. I spent almost 9mths on remand and got a suspended sentence. As our sister said, mostly the once that suffer is the poor. Completely true. The pain of spending the whole day in a small overloaded room with some of the most ill disciplined in the world is not easy to put in words. It is there in jail God showed me the kind of person I wasn`t aware of. I went in confused and naive but I came out a better person. This sister`s story is really emotional. I did shed a tear. Yes men cry a lot.
I met this woman yesterday she was a speaker at the cycle awareness Summit and i promise you shes gorgeous,,,listening to her speak was such a previledge😚😚love love love her..
Since ninunue simu Dec then kuingia TH-cam nikaona lyn I had to start following her channel nilijipata hadi tuko nikitafuta story zenye amehost just addicted to this beautiful lady
I have listened to this beautiful woman several times but this story touches my heart I can listen to this lady over and over. She is just a beautiful soul. Am happy that the end was beautiful. There is light at the end of the tunnel
No matter how good you might be to your boss and workmates non of them will ever considers you as your family does so let's learn from wanjiku's story!
Sometimes when God wants to elavate us,He always causes some pain for His glory. Sometimes the people close to us are the ones who will make us suffer and go through alot but in the end He always make a way,He always ensure we come out strong than before. Teresa,you raised your child in that pathetic place,I know sometimes you used to look at your baby and you like God why me. God was busy writing your story and yes you are here because He made a way..thanks for sharing,and I know the people who caused you pain are troubled wherever they are.
This is exactly what I was thinking as I was watching this. God always allows things to happen in our life's so He can use us to help others out. You can only help someone out of something you have went yourself through. God's way of doing things is not always understood by human mind.
@@teopistorsind9874 How about Isaiah 66; 9 " In the same way I will not cause pain without allowing something new to be born,” says the LORD. “If I cause you the pain, I will not stop you from giving birth to your new nation,” says your God
i am deeply touched by her story, can't imagine that happening in our prisons when we are talking of looting NCPB, KEMSA, ARROR e.t.c. For a start, i am going to organize and marshall resources for Kodiaga Prison and i will invite you Lynn.
There are no words to describe what l feel. When God chooses you for a mission He takes you to places that you would never normally go. God hand picked you to heal others who had been neglected. He knew you had compassion. I feel your heart for the people. In deed you are Christ in movement. Such an amazing story. Blessings on your life🙏🏾
I guess she has LEARN her LESSON in many ways ppl.are not nice, our colour are always hate ful of one another.. But GOD did have her back and still.. Happy that she has rise above her enemies... GOD bless her for what she is doing now...Strong woman...
Hey Lynn! Please keep me posted. Am happy to get intouch and support the effort, with my small little help. I have cried, because it pains me to see how pple go through hell. Crimes thy never committed. Please keep me intouch with the lady. I wish I could speak to her and just give a 5% of my salary to support her effort.
Thank you Teresa for being candid and so courageous to speak on what is exactly happening in our prisons ,alot of people are afraid to speak against injustice they sugarcoat malice and discomfort going on behind bars our inmates are going through hell and the time has come that us women need to stand up and fight for better and conducive environment for any inmate. Lynn ur our Kenyan Oprah 🔥🔥🔥. #justiceandempathystartswithme
It's so painful....I followed this story and when the verdict was delivered...it broke my heart ...You are a winner/Victor(ia). You are glorious looking and sounding, God knows and sees.
I was with Mama Shiko in Langata women prison. Prison is hell on earth. Being there for 8yrs was not easy,,,I left my kids,, I used to see them once in a year and it's for some hours.... Even though I was there for the crime I did,,, my children didn't deserve to go through what I they went through. Teresa has really helped us to recover it's not easy getting out of prison and counting with life... Sometimes I used to wish go back to prison.
Sorry for all that happened to you, the justice that was denied etc. The position of a woman Rep was created to come up with policy decisions that improve the life and provide for the needs of a woman. Maybe Lynn can interview them to help us identify the best regardless of the party affiliation. Those of us who can, let's organize amongst ourselves and be visiting such facilities frequently in order to provide for such basic needs. We cannot just sit and lament but we must do something.This is very very heartbreaking.
I too named my kids based on the situation or circumstance we were in. Our daughter is called Amani she was born 2007 post election violence and we prophesied she is and she will be the peace even in her generation. Our son Baraka,we were going through financial struggles and he is a blessing and will be a blessing to his generation True to their naming our gal she is a peace keeper,our son Baraka our financial situation changed and he will be a game changer and a big blessing to his generation.
My firstborn was named sasha by my husband and freinds which I was against.......the rest 2nd born I Named her JOY to bring joy and happiness in my home because I had a very sad moments low moments my husband was so toxic and I knew JOY will bring happiness and I thank GOD,I am almost having my third born whom am planning to Name BARAKA because I believe He will bring us out of financial crisis
This victorious lady is very eloquent,her strength is on another level.Thank you Lyn for such inspiration stories, your future is very luminous. (You look beautiful in your outfit)
What a testimony. God posted her to a higher mission and she listened. God send her to prison for a purpose and she executed it so well. This goes to show that our plans are not God's plans. So refreshing and eye opening listening to this wonderful soul. May she continue to be a blessing to many. Watching from South Africa. Thank you Lynn 👏👏👏. May you channel continue to bring us touching , healing and inspirational real life stories. 🌺🌺
God never sends anyone to prison. Never. But God will be with you in trouble to provide His sufficient grace and mercy to help you overcome and transition to a greater version of yourself, and for the greater good if you ask Him.
Hello Lynn. Thank you for bringing us such incredible, educative and inspirational stories. This lady’s experience in prison ten years ago in Kenya still demonstrates the current justice system, which is shaped by economic bias all over the world. The rich get richer and get away with criminal offences. Whilst the poor suffer injustice due to the lack of funds. Additionally, it is such a shame that women and children in these prisons have to suffer such inhuman and undignified experiences. Although, prison systems vary in how they are run. For instance, in the UK, children are taken away from there mothers and are left in the care of a parent figure, because the state is aware that the prison environment would have a negative impact on children, emotionally and mentally. Furthermore, women in prison are offered free sanitary and hygiene products at present. However, ten years ago female prisoners relied on their families and friends to bring them sanitary products. I guess that the UK being a developed country makes a huge difference. Regardless, it is significant to ensure that women’s dignity is promoted in prisons all over the world. Please let us know how we can support these women. Thank you!
Well said, I wish the women leaders in government shouldn't take this for granted. They should be the voices of the voiceless women in prison. Instead of parading outside supporting leaders who are after there own personal gains, they should start changing the world of women in prisons. As a man this story has really touched me and I think we should borrow from Western countries, prisons should be another kind of world for the betterment of the society. It should be another possibility to help the vulnerable feel that all is not all but another future is possible. The government should listen to this story and act.
Want to correct something .babies are well taken care of...why go with the baby during time of judgement?why not leave her with your family?something isn't adding up here.
Yes but Holloway prison had horror stories, no wonder it was shut down, prison is prison let's just be each others keeper and avoid wishing people suffering that we can't handle ourselves.
I'm curious for the part two of this story. Seeing how beautiful and healthy you are telling it yourself, I know you have already won and also shamed your enemies.
Aki this woman is so strong..she is a heroe but my heart breaks when i think of those women struggling with pregnacies and small children there....may God see them through
Lynn, thanks for sharing these inspiring stories. Please I implore you to add subtitles for those of us who haven’t learnt swahili yet. You have a global audience😉
I relate to this story pretty well,My husband got fired from a bank because of a such similar case,Jesus its crazy completely crazy, especially when you know it witch hurting,.............. Banks ! Banks! So many people go through hell in the hands of so called Banks. But Thanks to our Almighty that He gives verdict.
Am so sorry Beaut 😢 I have worked in the banking sector for five years dealing with branches, transfer of funds and credit card and I cannot tell you how many times I was approached by fraudsters to do their dirty work telling me that no one was going to know that it was me! I thank God that He gave me a conscious mind and said no everytime thinking about the 14 years in prison or any other person to go through that for that matter 😢 I would even remind customers of their other accounts that they have forgotten about with funds in it! I thank God for your life and that of your family Sis 🙌🏾💞
Hello team LN, what are your views on today's episode? Connect with Teresa here cleanstartkenya.org/ To share your story, please send a summary to lynn@lynnngugi.co.ke or lynnngugi4@gmail.com for consideration Watch out for Part Two Tomorrow at 10am 💛
Hi Lynn, thank you for sharing this story. I have emailed you with regards to my daughter who is currently in prison in Rwanda where we live. We are Kenyan. I would be really happy to connect with Teresa as we need emotional support from people who have been through this situation. It is very difficult to be honest. God bless you.
Hi Lynn am really touched by this story especially with how the babies suffer in prison ,is it possible for someone to visit the prisons and give those kids clothes even if they are used?
Thanks Lynn for bringing Teresa...Thanks Teresa for the good work you are advocating. Surely our courts have been compromised to criminalize poverty. Indignity at it best. Prisoners deserve better
It is for sure very very traumatizing to hear the Prison stories, such a sad 😔 situation for those Women & their innocent children. With such wicked crimes against innocent souls, a Land can never prosper! So much innocent cries. Am Sorry for what you had to go through even though you were innocent from the beginning. In such Situation, we can only say God wanted to elevate you to a higher position & to serve Him through being the Voice to those voiceless Souls in the Prison. God knew no one else could do that except you & He had no other way than to let you go through that trying & difficult path for you to reach His designated position for you. You are a special Soul, & God used you for a bigger purpose. I am happy that You have found your calling/Life purpose to serve God through the Women in the prison. Your story is a sad & good one at the same time. I bless you & your loved ones. Thank you Lynn for these touching,impacting & life changing moments/Stories. Peace & Love 💚💚💚💐💐🌹🫂🫂 Let’s start this please ....... ~~~#PantsandPadsForPrisonWomeninKenya
She reminds me of Joseph in the Bible. Her soul type is most likely Ephraite or Manasseh! What those who threw her in meant for evil, God meant for good! And many will be blessed because of her experience!
Teresa allow me to say that your going there is a blessing in disguise for the poor, marginalized and vulnerable as you said. This testimony will turn things around. This is being watched globally! Your setback will be a comeback pretty soon. I salute you. Thanks Lynn for this platform and the work you're doing.
I have shed a tear, to hear how women queue for a panty and fight over paperbags as diapers, as much as people are behind bars, they are still human beings..
The truth is Africa is one rotten continent that you may wonder why is it there. Why do we have to vote and wish for change if we can't get it. Our law systems is Soo bad across the continent that as ordinary people we really don't know what to do, our politicians are failing us to the core....this is over heart breaking
Lynn this story has made me cry and feel for the women in prison with their children. And also for the age group still having their menstrual periods and are in prison. Is there something that we can do to help. This story has made me shed tears from my heart.
She is amazing 😍😍😍 I have met her and her organisation Clean start is doing amazing work. God bless. I love your show Lynn very inspiring ❤️❤️ i have learnt a lot from the guests you host. Keep winning. Much love from, 🇩🇪
It's shocking the things 'selfish ambition' can do to humanity. Sometimes we just need to look beyond ourselves and consider or reconsider our choices and decisions in life. The pain and suffering we might cause if only we chose to reconsider. In the end, whether the perpetrator or victim, when we look beyond 'self' and seek to find what we can do for others, only then can life become better and the world a better place. Until we live for more that 'ourselves', then we can count ourselves blessed and a blessing. God bless you Teresa. You're indeed a trailblazer and a blessing.
waoh!,This lady is a gem! she is eloquent and quite articulate in her words not to mention her natural beauty. Triza you are surely a victor and she has really opened my eyes she is excellent. Kudos gal.
Lynn you look elegant. Natural African beauty queen. Teresa is a very strong woman, blessed, beautiful, highly intelligent and smart. Beauties with brains.
This is such a sad affair. When colleagues conspire to bring you down just because you are doing well is just crazy. I relate to this kind of malice and its so hurtful.
Hii no system ya majabazi unfortunately the innocent rot in jail while the wicked continue enjoying life and putting more in jail. What’s with the “justice system”? Uughh
Lady Teresa, you will continue to excel and shine to the glory of God. Your enemies will continue to decline to nothing. They think they are racing to wealth, but they are racing to destruction, death, and hell. Jesus Christ is your strength and the glory of your latter house will exceed the glory of the former one. God bless. 🙏🏽
My father went through the same thing. But growing up and visiting our dad in prison is something that was difficult 😞 You’re such a strong 💪 woman 👩 May God continue lifting you high.
The amazing , wonderful Teresa Njoroge that I work with at Clean Start Solutions. Such an honor to work with her to bring positive transformation in the lives of thousands of women, children and girls impacted by the criminal justice system.
Oh Teresa! You are a beautiful woman, inside out, and that you retained your smile even having been through hell is simply amazing. Glad to have met you in my lifetime.
When I started watching part 1 the first few mins I was studying Theresa, her body language and I felt like she was holding back... I couldn't put my finger on it. However, as she went on about (15mins or so) I said to myself this woman has been traumatized( this was b4 she talked about the trauma, in part 2). As someone who has experienced trauma you can recognize it in someone else after awhile. She is still healing... She has to remove all the bandages off the wounds, clean the wound and allow the wounds to breath. It will be painful but healing. I can't wait to see where she goes and want she does in life. 🙏🏿
Lynn Ngugi is our African queen Ophrah Winfrey , Lynn your talkshow is a must watch and you host with grace, patience and class. This topic was so upsetting to watch and listen to, how can we at least organize and get panties to our sisters and mothers in prisons? Lynn please give updates on how this can be addressed, would be happy to donate to this cause if any. PS --- yes came back to comment after watching Part 2 and do have more info now, Thanks.
The rich will steal millions from the public coffers and still roam free while the poor rots in these pathetic prisons for hawking in an effort to fend for their families. Where is justice?? 😭
We really need to arrange to give panties and pads to women in Prison. Its really sad to hear that and yet there is a budget for the prisons department every year. This money goes to the pockets of those in charge instead of providing the bare necessities for the prisoners. ITS A SAD SITUATION!
I was a banker at Equity and I left when I realized that my superior always framed me for small issues . I thought the can even frame me for fraud issues . I thank God
Lynn I was glad to hear you two talk about non custodial sentence and probation to be specific. Unfortunately many people do not see probation as a sentence (I am a probation officer). And like she has mentioned most of those who are in prison are there for petty offences. And it is even worse for women with children. Some accompany their mothers and others are left at home (some end up in the system). These are the kind of stories that need to be heard
Such a heartbreaking story happening to a brilliant woman. Life is truly unfair and can be quite nasty. Of all bad things that can happen to someone, betrayal tops the list.
As a Correctional Officer, I walk in this prison with one thing on mind, treat every Individual the way you would want to be treated, this is a clear scenario of anyone can find themselves on the other side of the law. She is a victor forreal
@@estherwambui1072 I am not based in Kenya I work in a prison outside of Kenya and here it’s a totally different story. I work in a male facility but they are treated much much better
Let me drink coffee because this story is just unbelievable. And we have women leaders sitting in high places with millions in their disposal wondering what to do with the money! I pray our next first lady can take up on issues prison / women and children in prison.
Please make it your life's mission and push for change on the way women and children are done this way. You won't become rich however it will bring blessings to you and your family.
Always checking new episodes it assisting me to know new things that is happened to others and gain knowledge and experience. Life is a journey that comes with a lots of challenges...
My take.. Uma.. truth.. an epitome of truth. In this generation of heartlessness, God will continue to raise men and women of integrity. Thank you for sharing your story.
I have cried!and am so upset! No human being and especially those children with their mothers should go through this ! There needs to be reforms in our prisons that atleast preserves ones dignity,
I was in the Banking Industry and I saw innocent Bankers being framed for cases that they had nothing to do with. Those who stole through documentation trail always setup their colleges. Very sad. They had no remorse and had no mercy as they defrauded the banks. Pole Teresa, I recall your case and I knew you were setup.... Listening to your story i realize the reason why you are supporting the women in prison. Keep on the good work Teresa...
God is the judge and everyone involved in injustices will pay. This lady need to look at a job internationally to advocate for women and children in Kenya within the dysfunctional and broken justice system.
Only the strong survives...Teresa exudes strength and grace the fact that she is smiling shows that inner strength... she may have loved banking but that was not for her ...it was just a stepping stone to the next level ... it is sad that jealousy, envy and imprisonment was the stone .. it is sad for the children but at least the "benefit" of them remaining with was identified ... this is the first time I am hearing about this method of imprisonment usually children would be handed over to the authorities or family ... maybe just as it was the saving grace for Teresa ...I guess in some sort of warped way "maybe" that is why it was done ... that my dear Lynn is a series onto itself "Raising Children in Prision" the during and after effects on the child ...this was interesting ... going to Part 2...🙏
Reading your story from Albany, New York in the USA. Your story is here breaking. You are a survival and God Bless you. You can and have inspired a lot of women who have gone this experience. You are an inspiration.
What is meant to hurt you God will use it to bless you.I am sorry you and your baby went through the most horrific experience under a broken justice system that was created to cater to the rich and enslave the poor.We need to do more about the Kenyan justice system,a justice system so broken it does not serve its people.Equality has become a dream ,if you fall in the cracks you are doomed for life.I am glad she got out and is doing well today .God bless you and always remember that God never abandoned you then and he will always be with you.Keep on going !!

Can you and the lady start a funds drive please? I’m sure many women would want to contribute some cash to go into buying panties, diapers and pads

But did you ever visited her in the jail no 🤔
@ruthwambugu7549 good question! This such are the worst people in life!
Did u ever visit her in jail if u were such good Freinds👀🙄
I see judgemental bitter comments here. Her statement isn't wrong in any way.
Lyn looking all good today...am loving this woman bit by bit she expresses herself so well
Are you sure she is looking good 😂😂
I was arrested once, some 5yrs ago. It happened in South Africa. I spent almost 9mths on remand and got a suspended sentence. As our sister said, mostly the once that suffer is the poor. Completely true. The pain of spending the whole day in a small overloaded room with some of the most ill disciplined in the world is not easy to put in words.

Absolutely..
Well put but just a slight correction. God does not cause anyone pain. He may allow it for us to learn something but NO, He doesn't cause our pain.

@Gathoni Alice, that's a good idea 👍...I second you on that.
Betrayal pain heartbreak has run over me as I watched this .such a strong woman being interviewed by the best empathetic lady I have ever watched.
I too named my kids based on the situation or circumstance we were in.
Our daughter is called Amani she was born 2007 post election violence and we prophesied she is and she will be the peace even in her generation.
Our son Baraka,we were going through financial struggles and he is a blessing and will be a blessing to his generation
True to their naming our gal she is a peace keeper,our son Baraka our financial situation changed and he will be a game changer and a big blessing to his generation.

I read the description part first then continue watching! That employer is so evil😥 so heartless😭
I have loved this lady. She is resilient and soft spoken. I wish you the best sis.
May all you lost come back to you in full, the LORD is good
Omg I knew prisons were bad but this has shine the light on a whole new level.😭😭
Teresa has so much class.
Her dress code, simple but classic
Her mannerism
Her elegance
Everything about her ooze class
What a beautiful soul🤔. God will restore you a hundredfold. You are a blessing to many.
I know, classy but warm
Still a cloud, a puzzle hangs around her.
You know what they say....bad things happen to good people....
What a testimony. God posted her to a higher mission and she listened. God send her to prison for a purpose and she executed it so well. This goes to show that our plans are not God's plans. So refreshing and eye opening listening to this wonderful soul. May she continue to be a blessing to many. Watching from South Africa. Thank you Lynn 👏👏👏. May you channel continue to bring us touching , healing and inspirational real life stories. 🌺🌺

Lost for words.
God never sends anyone to prison. Never. But God will be with you in trouble to provide His sufficient grace and mercy to help you overcome and transition to a greater version of yourself, and for the greater good if you ask Him.
Hello Lynn. Thank you for bringing us such incredible, educative and inspirational stories. This lady’s experience in prison ten years ago in Kenya still demonstrates the current justice system, which is shaped by economic bias all over the world. The rich get richer and get away with criminal offences. Whilst the poor suffer injustice due to the lack of funds. Additionally, it is such a shame that women and children in these prisons have to suffer such inhuman and undignified experiences. Although, prison systems vary in how they are run. For instance, in the UK, children are taken away from there mothers and are left in the care of a parent figure, because the state is aware that the prison environment would have a negative impact on children, emotionally and mentally. Furthermore, women in prison are offered free sanitary and hygiene products at present. However, ten years ago female prisoners relied on their families and friends to bring them sanitary products. I guess that the UK being a developed country makes a huge difference. Regardless, it is significant to ensure that women’s dignity is promoted in prisons all over the world. Please let us know how we can support these women. Thank you!

Well said, I wish the women leaders in government shouldn't take this for granted. They should be the voices of the voiceless women in prison. Instead of parading outside supporting leaders who are after there own personal gains, they should start changing the world of women in prisons. As a man this story has really touched me and I think we should borrow from Western countries, prisons should be another kind of world for the betterment of the society. It should be another possibility to help the vulnerable feel that all is not all but another future is possible. The government should listen to this story and act.
Want to correct something .babies are well taken care of...why go with the baby during time of judgement?why not leave her with your family?something isn't adding up here.
Hi I have a proposal for the same can we work together?
Yes but Holloway prison had horror stories, no wonder it was shut down, prison is prison let's just be each others keeper and avoid wishing people suffering that we can't handle ourselves.
I'm curious for the part two of this story. Seeing how beautiful and healthy you are telling it yourself, I know you have already won and also shamed your enemies.
This is a great interview Lyne. So sorry Teresa for what happened. She is so well spoken too!
Noticed that too. Very eloquent
Aki this woman is so strong..she is a heroe but my heart breaks when i think of those women struggling with pregnacies and small children there....may God see them through
Wow Lyn this woman is a legend
Lynn, thanks for sharing these inspiring stories. Please I implore you to add subtitles for those of us who haven’t learnt swahili yet. You have a global audience😉
I relate to this story pretty well,My husband got fired from a bank because of a such similar case,Jesus its crazy completely crazy, especially when you know it witch hurting,.............. Banks ! Banks! So many people go through hell in the hands of so called Banks. But Thanks to our Almighty that He gives verdict.
Not just banks💯Most institutions are pure crap!!!And most colleagues are demons

Am so sorry Beaut 😢 I have worked in the banking sector for five years dealing with branches, transfer of funds and credit card and I cannot tell you how many times I was approached by fraudsters to do their dirty work telling me that no one was going to know that it was me! I thank God that He gave me a conscious mind and said no everytime thinking about the 14 years in prison or any other person to go through that for that matter 😢 I would even remind customers of their other accounts that they have forgotten about with funds in it! I thank God for your life and that of your family Sis 🙌🏾💞

Whatever the situation is ,God is always faithful🙏
@lynn you look too cute with your hairstyle..
Hi Lynn, thank you for sharing this story. I have emailed you with regards to my daughter who is currently in prison in Rwanda where we live. We are Kenyan. I would be really happy to connect with Teresa as we need emotional support from people who have been through this situation. It is very difficult to be honest. God bless you.
Christ while on this earth was convicted too. We can only have hope that all this will come to pass.
Hi Lynn am really touched by this story especially with how the babies suffer in prison ,is it possible for someone to visit the prisons and give those kids clothes even if they are used?
Thanks Lynn for bringing Teresa...Thanks Teresa for the good work you are advocating. Surely our courts have been compromised to criminalize poverty. Indignity at it best. Prisoners deserve better
It is for sure very very traumatizing to hear the Prison stories, such a sad 😔 situation for those Women & their innocent children. With such wicked crimes against innocent souls, a Land can never prosper! So much innocent cries.
Am Sorry for what you had to go through even though you were innocent from the beginning.
In such Situation, we can only say God wanted to elevate you to a higher position & to serve Him through being the Voice to those voiceless Souls in the Prison. God knew no one else could do that except you & He had no other way than to let you go through that trying & difficult path for you to reach His designated position for you. You are a special Soul, & God used you for a bigger purpose.
I am happy that You have found your calling/Life purpose to serve God through the Women in the prison. Your story is a sad & good one at the same time.
I bless you & your loved ones.
Thank you Lynn for these touching,impacting & life changing moments/Stories.
Peace & Love 💚💚💚💐💐🌹🫂🫂
Let’s start this please .......
~~~#PantsandPadsForPrisonWomeninKenya
Lynn, you have this bright and shining light; keep shining it to these darkest of recesses in our society!
She reminds me of Joseph in the Bible. Her soul type is most likely Ephraite or Manasseh! What those who threw her in meant for evil, God meant for good! And many will be blessed because of her experience!
Such courage! She is a definition of beauty and brains. Glad to see you are picking up the pieces.
Teresa allow me to say that your going there is a blessing in disguise for the poor, marginalized and vulnerable as you said. This testimony will turn things around. This is being watched globally! Your setback will be a comeback pretty soon. I salute you. Thanks Lynn for this platform and the work you're doing.
NO ! If it is such a blessing why aren't we lining up to enter Lang'ata Prison? Wake up!
Thank you Theresa for sharing your story. I have learnt that we mustn't judge people who have been incarcerated as we don’t know their stories.
I have shed a tear, to hear how women queue for a panty and fight over paperbags as diapers, as much as people are behind bars, they are still human beings..
Really sad..innocent kids!
Heart breaking..
The truth is Africa is one rotten continent that you may wonder why is it there. Why do we have to vote and wish for change if we can't get it. Our law systems is Soo bad across the continent that as ordinary people we really don't know what to do, our politicians are failing us to the core....this is over heart breaking
Very sad😭😭😭
This is so sad 😭
Lynn this story has made me cry and feel for the women in prison with their children. And also for the age group still having their menstrual periods and are in prison. Is there something that we can do to help. This story has made me shed tears from my heart.
She is amazing 😍😍😍 I have met her and her organisation Clean start is doing amazing work. God bless. I love your show Lynn very inspiring ❤️❤️ i have learnt a lot from the guests you host. Keep winning. Much love from, 🇩🇪
This conversation has been so upsetting. I’m so sorry for what Teresa and the other women and children went through. This is very sad, inhumane.
i think this is the best and most educative piece ive sen in a while
It's shocking the things 'selfish ambition' can do to humanity.
Sometimes we just need to look beyond ourselves and consider or reconsider our choices and decisions in life. The pain and suffering we might cause if only we chose to reconsider.
In the end, whether the perpetrator or victim, when we look beyond 'self' and seek to find what we can do for others, only then can life become better and the world a better place. Until we live for more that 'ourselves', then we can count ourselves blessed and a blessing.
God bless you Teresa. You're indeed a trailblazer and a blessing.
waoh!,This lady is a gem! she is eloquent and quite articulate in her words not to mention her natural beauty. Triza you are surely a victor and she has really opened my eyes she is excellent. Kudos gal.
Never trust co-workers or friends. Pretenders!! Pretenders!! Fear them and be watchful. All the best beautiful and thanks Lynn for the stories 🥰
Lynn you look elegant. Natural African beauty queen. Teresa is a very strong woman, blessed, beautiful, highly intelligent and smart. Beauties with brains.
This is such a sad affair. When colleagues conspire to bring you down just because you are doing well is just crazy. I relate to this kind of malice and its so hurtful.
This is so rampant especially in the banking industry.
Hii no system ya majabazi unfortunately the innocent rot in jail while the wicked continue enjoying life and putting more in jail. What’s with the “justice system”? Uughh
True true. Going through this type of hatred, malice requires the hand of God. Then boooom God blesses you and you realize his greatness
Mimi huresign anytime kama igathe 😂😂😂 my certificates are not written any institution I can work where I want
Life is spiritual.....one needs to invest in Jesus Christ for protection...
.Jesus said even members of ones household would even be enemies
Lady Teresa, you will continue to excel and shine to the glory of God. Your enemies will continue to decline to nothing. They think they are racing to wealth, but they are racing to destruction, death, and hell. Jesus Christ is your strength and the glory of your latter house will exceed the glory of the former one. God bless. 🙏🏽
This was very much needed to shine some light on how the justice system works in kenya …it’s a shame to all involved and participate in the injustice.
She's so intelligent woman be blessed
My father went through the same thing. But growing up and visiting our dad in prison is something that was difficult 😞 You’re such a strong 💪 woman 👩 May God continue lifting you high.
The amazing , wonderful Teresa Njoroge that I work with at Clean Start Solutions. Such an honor to work with her to bring positive transformation in the lives of thousands of women, children and girls impacted by the criminal justice system.
I really wish to join you guys
I wish to join you guys will check out your website
I work in a bank and I can tell Teresa did all due diligence as per the policy,but colleagues can totally ruin your life if they want to destroy you.
Matikaingira kaburi matarihite na matikona thayu ever ever...
Everything is vanity
Look at her now she is a very brave and smart Woman.....her Voice and English is heavenly 😘😘😘❤️
Thank you so very much for speaking English, I salute you guest lady.
Oh Teresa! You are a beautiful woman, inside out, and that you retained your smile even having been through hell is simply amazing. Glad to have met you in my lifetime.
When I started watching part 1 the first few mins I was studying Theresa, her body language and I felt like she was holding back... I couldn't put my finger on it. However, as she went on about (15mins or so) I said to myself this woman has been traumatized( this was b4 she talked about the trauma, in part 2). As someone who has experienced trauma you can recognize it in someone else after awhile. She is still healing... She has to remove all the bandages off the wounds, clean the wound and allow the wounds to breath. It will be painful but healing. I can't wait to see where she goes and want she does in life. 🙏🏿
I have served her Soo many times and she's so polite ,her vibe is always positive,her dress code is always on point..her story is breaking my heart
Lynn Ngugi is our African queen Ophrah Winfrey , Lynn your talkshow is a must watch and you host with grace, patience and class. This topic was so upsetting to watch and listen to, how can we at least organize and get panties to our sisters and mothers in prisons? Lynn please give updates on how this can be addressed, would be happy to donate to this cause if any. PS --- yes came back to comment after watching Part 2 and do have more info now, Thanks.
I was listening to her story this morning on hope FM radio, so touching
Wow
Iam so sorry for the women prisoners. Lynn may God bless you. I must look for what to do for someone, no matter how small it may be.
So true ,in Kenya prison is for the poor,you can't bribe,you can't get justice. So sad 💔😭
Really 😔 😔!!! God what can l do in my capacity to change all this madness!!!
Very true only poor are in prison.How many wealthy pple have committed crime bt they are moving around proudly
Poor and innocent,the guilty ones are moving around since they can afford bails and bribes.... God have mercy
The rich will steal millions from the public coffers and still roam free while the poor rots in these pathetic prisons for hawking in an effort to fend for their families. Where is justice?? 😭
Lynn is here shining 🌟!!❤️.
This woman speaks so much to me.
We really need to arrange to give panties and pads to women in Prison. Its really sad to hear that and yet there is a budget for the prisons department every year. This money goes to the pockets of those in charge instead of providing the bare necessities for the prisoners. ITS A SAD SITUATION!
Very true, we need to do something about it
It's true, so sad😢
Yes,,we should..its very sad
True💯💯
Haki.... It's sad...
I was a banker at Equity and I left when I realized that my superior always framed me for small issues . I thought the can even frame me for fraud issues . I thank God
That's how it starts, before you know it , you are accused of some alleged fraud......... they destroy people's careers... just move on
Lynn I was glad to hear you two talk about non custodial sentence and probation to be specific. Unfortunately many people do not see probation as a sentence (I am a probation officer). And like she has mentioned most of those who are in prison are there for petty offences. And it is even worse for women with children. Some accompany their mothers and others are left at home (some end up in the system). These are the kind of stories that need to be heard
Such a heartbreaking story happening to a brilliant woman. Life is truly unfair and can be quite nasty. Of all bad things that can happen to someone, betrayal tops the list.
As a Correctional Officer, I walk in this prison with one thing on mind, treat every Individual the way you would want to be treated, this is a clear scenario of anyone can find themselves on the other side of the law. She is a victor forreal
Be blessed for what you do!
God bless! I wish there could be more like you!🙏🙏
Aki simkue mkiwapea panties. Ata kaa ni mzee. Eeeish
@@estherwambui1072 I am not based in Kenya I work in a prison outside of Kenya and here it’s a totally different story. I work in a male facility but they are treated much much better
@@rosekaburia5217 it’s my prayer too.
What a beautiful woman.very smart mind and a clean heart.God keep you going.
The good thing about listening to this platform,i always pick couraging words to build my life and learn something new
Yeah me too.
After watching this horror story, I will close my Bank Account with that Bank in solidarity with Teresia, where are our first families and churches 😠
Let me drink coffee because this story is just unbelievable. And we have women leaders sitting in high places with millions in their disposal wondering what to do with the money! I pray our next first lady can take up on issues prison / women and children in prison.
Imagine...Sad, very sad....
true
This is it for me. I'm a Nigerian lawyer, I'm going to help get people like these out
Please make it your life's mission and push for change on the way women and children are done this way. You won't become rich however it will bring blessings to you and your family.
So help you God
😂😂😂
We have layers in Kenya. 😊
Always checking new episodes it assisting me to know new things that is happened to others and gain knowledge and experience. Life is a journey that comes with a lots of challenges...
Very brilliant lady/guest, I must admit...So eloquent...so intelligent
My take.. Uma.. truth.. an epitome of truth. In this generation of heartlessness, God will continue to raise men and women of integrity. Thank you for sharing your story.
I have cried!and am so upset! No human being and especially those children with their mothers should go through this ! There needs to be reforms in our prisons that atleast preserves ones dignity,
I was in the Banking Industry and I saw innocent Bankers being framed for cases that they had nothing to do with. Those who stole through documentation trail always setup their colleges. Very sad. They had no remorse and had no mercy as they defrauded the banks. Pole Teresa, I recall your case and I knew you were setup.... Listening to your story i realize the reason why you are supporting the women in prison. Keep on the good work Teresa...
Teresa seems a woman is intellectual, eloquent, humble and smart beautiful lady sad what happened to her
God is the judge and everyone involved in injustices will pay. This lady need to look at a job internationally to advocate for women and children in Kenya within the dysfunctional and broken justice system.
Beautiful woman. The dimples look so good on you Teresa!
Looking good girls,the eloquency is top notch
Only the strong survives...Teresa exudes strength and grace the fact that she is smiling shows that inner strength... she may have loved banking but that was not for her ...it was just a stepping stone to the next level ... it is sad that jealousy, envy and imprisonment was the stone .. it is sad for the children but at least the "benefit" of them remaining with was identified ... this is the first time I am hearing about this method of imprisonment usually children would be handed over to the authorities or family ... maybe just as it was the saving grace for Teresa ...I guess in some sort of warped way "maybe" that is why it was done ... that my dear Lynn is a series onto itself "Raising Children in Prision" the during and after effects on the child ...this was interesting ... going to Part 2...🙏
I remember her story years ago..,going even more stronger..,can't put a strong woman down.
Reading your story from Albany, New York in the USA. Your story is here breaking. You are a survival and God Bless you. You can and have inspired a lot of women who have gone this experience. You are an inspiration.
This conversation here, I loved it... Teresa is so inspiring.
You are my Hero girl
''What those kids see and what they hear, is a total abuse.'' Very painful💔
Very
What is meant to hurt you God will use it to bless you.I am sorry you and your baby went through the most horrific experience under a broken justice system that was created to cater to the rich and enslave the poor.We need to do more about the Kenyan justice system,a justice system so broken it does not serve its people.Equality has become a dream ,if you fall in the cracks you are doomed for life.I am glad she got out and is doing well today .God bless you and always remember that God never abandoned you then and he will always be with you.Keep on going !!
